Responding to reports in some media that LTI Vehicles, manufacturer of the world famous London-style taxis, was set to move production to Pakistan, Peter Shillcock, Managing Director of the Coventry-based company, said: “We have been in discussions with Prime Transport for a number of years concerning their project to produce and sell a purpose-built taxi in Pakistan.

“We support Mr Daud Khan in his efforts to introduce London taxis into Pakistan. <b>However, we have not ceased, and have no plans to cease, production in the UK. <!--emo&:liar liar--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/liar.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='liar.gif' /><!--endemo-->

“The UK is our main sales market and, as such, it is imperative that we produce taxis in the UK for the UK market.”</b>
